    Here's my custom Classics Ravage. He's not really classics in any sense of the line except for the fact that I will put him in my Classics display.

    He's made from Energon Overhaul (head), Battle and Command Ravage I took the main body of Battle Ravage and the black/dark blue limbs of Command Ravage. I always hated the face on him so I gave him a slightly modified Overhaul head. This was the first time I used a soldering iron to remove a pin (the one hold his head in place) and I hit the plastic a few times so there's a bit of damage left from that, whoops!

    I also realize there is a bit of touching up to do after looking at the photos. No big deal though he was just a quick project I wanted to do for practice with removing pins by using a hammer and pin remover (legs and arms) and a soldering iron (for the heads)

    looks like he found some with Huffer and Brawn

    I'm glad to see you having fun with customs again, bud :thumb  I'm still sad to see you move on from Alts/BTs, but the Classics are really working for ya. I'm not a huge fan of Ravage as a kitty/robot, but your work looks good. Keep it up bud :thumb

    I think personally its awesome and funny to see Ravage giving chase on Huffer and Brawn and then be chased by Jazz..priceless. now all it needs are those rockets on his thighs and there you go, but right now its cool the way it is.

    Thanks man

    I was thinking about some rocket launcher but I'm not sure still. I love the tiny megatron gun that he comes with. I'm trying to figure out a way to make it attach to his arm in bot mode, shouldn't be too hard. I have 2 of the missile launcher he came with too. I can probably just drill a few holes and stick them in his thighs

    Thanks a lot SQ7. I did actually start with Classics customs though, my first 2 were Nemesis Prime and Thundercracker.

    I'm not a huge fan of Ravage as a bot either but. I had a bunch of extra figs laying around from a lot I bought and I wanted to get creative plus I always hated the stock head on this Ravage

    I'm glad you liked my quick little impromtu battle scene. I want to have more fun with my photos and in turn hopefully people will have more fun looking at them.

    Thanks for everyone's comments. As always they are much appreciated

    Thanks I though it would. I always liked this head mold but Overhaul's posability and character doesn't quite work in my classics display

    Thanks man
